Bill Gates Creates Blue Diversion Toilet for Developing Countries
A group of scientists sponsored by Bill Gates has finally finished work on an eco-friendly toilet called Blue Diversion. The toilet was developed for hot countries in Africa and Asia, where there are serious problems not only with clean water, but also with sanitation. The toilet is virtually waste-free, moreover, it uses a minimum amount of water due to an advanced filter system.
The meaning of Blue Diversion is that immediately after flushing the sink with water coming from a special barrel, human waste products undergo a multilevel splitting system. The first stage of purification is the cleavage itself, during which the fecal masses turn into a single substance and are separated from water.
Further, the resulting mass continues to split and dehydrate, and the water enters the multi-level filtration system. The filtered water is then disinfected – all bacteria and viruses are destroyed in it, after which it returns to the common barrel and is ready for reuse.
After that, the automatic system sends the residual waste product to a special toilet reactor, where the last stage of cleavage and packaging takes place in a special plastic capsule. One capsule can serve dozens of people.
Blue Diversion has 5 such capsules. Scientists noted that after a cycle of operation, the capsules can be removed and cleaned. Residents will be able to use the resulting product, for example, for soil fertilization in agriculture, all elements dangerous to human health will be removed from it by a “clean” toilet.
As for human urine, it goes through a filtration system with water and is separated from it. After that, the separated urine is evaporated by the reactor, disinfected and after transformation into a solid aggregate state is sent to the waste chamber. Scientists working on Blue Diversion hope that their toilet will improve sanitation in “problem” regions of the Earth.
